New Year's morning 1893 was clear, calm and cold, as day dawned over our beautiful Willamette valley For once no stoim was Taxing and as tbe tun came up from behind ths distant Cas cade mountains, whose lofty peaks were white with winter's snows, its rays touched the dark outline oi the few clouds floating near the eastern horiion and transformed tbem ioto a gorgeous coloring of crimson an J gold, with sheeny silver intermixed. This was the situation when we start ed for Sand Ridge, ten miles away, and for some distance before reaching that place we could see its grange's stately ball on a site that overlooks many miles of Linn county's broad prairies. For a background towered Peterson's Butte, with sides green like to spring time, though reflecting the light of a i January sun. Upon reaching the hall we found many grangers already there and many others fast arriving and for a short season New Year's greetings flaw thick and fast until th. very atmosphere seemed almost filled with happiness. President Powell called tbe couucil to order. A song was sung and a prayer was of t'ered by tbe cbaplaiu. Minutes of last meeting were read and pproveoTTbeu came roll call of dele gates and appointments to fill vacancies. Next came the annual election, resell ing as follows: Geo L ttsese, rres; A C Morgan, vice nres; Elisa Scott, hec;Mart Miller, treas;J W Swank, Vi K: H Parker, agents O U Walker (chaplain. C L Shaw and S U Settle were elected trustees. During the ballot ing a certain young lady wm one of lbs didates for a certrin office. After tbe rat ballot a member frcm Knox Butt up and said in effect, that it bad been heir experience that where a young lady was elected to fill that office she got mar ried within a year. Tbe speech resulted in the triumphant election of the lady candidate on tbe next ballot. Dinner was announced, and repario to tbe spacious dining ball wa found that our bint in our last report to tbe ma trons, over tbe shoulders of tbe husband men, bad been totally acd recklessly dis regarded, for an abundant and luxuriant provision bad been made, invitingly spread out, and proved to be very pala table. All these provisions were furn ished by five families, and fed over sev entyfive persons, with plenty provisions left. That such a small society of sue cees'ul sisters should tend in sufficient, substantial subsistance, for several score of soldiers of the soil, surely should se cure some songs of. praUe. Dinner being over Cosiness was resum ed. Report o( secretary was read and adopted. It showed that nine meetings had been held during the past year, and with the following granges: Sand Ridge, Knox Butte, Fairmount, Oak Plain, Hal ey, Charity Tangent, Uf and Prairie.and Harmony. Report of treasurer was aleo'read and adopted. Bill of secretary for attending nine meetings, was read, and on motion was allowed and ordered paid. Resolution from Grand Prairie grange, authorizing tbe president o! the council to appoint three delegates from each grange to viait some other grange in tbe county, during the month, and report at the next council, was adopted, and delegates named. Also resolution from the same grange to bave appointed a committee of five to formulate a plan for organizing Tax pa; -ra Protective Association by which per sor.al property shall be more fully rep- re sen d upon tbe assessment roll, which was adopted. Report ol finance eoaimit.ee was read and adopted. Voted to meet with Knox Bu'.te Grange the first Saturday in Feb mart. It was anoonced that State Jl as ter W M Hilleary had promised to meet tbe conncil at that time and place. Vote ' fit nks wis tendered to Sand Ridge for use of halt and abundant pro- Visions. The subject," Wbioh tree J makes tbe best all purpose cow.' was then taken p by the leader Geo L. Reece, who brought his heard ol Jersey, into the arena and manfully stood by them to tbe last. Lie was foKowed by Mart Miller, who also bad Jerseys, bat championed the Holslein's. When the two herds locked borns there was a pitched battle, and tbe fight wocld have been terrific bad not some of them been dehorned. Both sides won some honors, be Jersey's to our mind winning the most; for by their activity they more than made np what they lacked in size. For want of time tbe "chicken quest ion" bad to go over nntil tbe next meet ing, with Mrs Romine as leader. Tbe committee on program reported tbe following questions : 1st, Tbe care and treatment of fruit trees, with C H Walker as leader. 2nd, How to snake home attractive. Leader, Mrs A E Olio lollewed by Mrs Clara S.ank and Mrs Mary Walker. Voted to make this qaes tion the first on tbe program at th. next meeting. Nothing occurred to mar the happiness of tbe day, and all felt that New Years had been profitably and pleasantly spent and soon tns thirty veLicles and a num ber of saddle bones were bearing tbe merry grangers homeward. Remarkablc Hold &p. tVuuid you like to know how a man looks when be is holding you up? W S Sadler, of tbe American Medical Missionary College stepped into tbe alley at tbe back of the Woraingmen's Home, in Custom House place, Chicago, about 4 o'clock io the afternoon a short time ago and wss confronted with the appar ition pictured here. He bad his camera with him and, cautioning tbe hold-up man to stand still (tbongb be forgot to tell him to look pleasant).be took a snap shot in tte very moEz'e of the leveled revo ver. The photographic result you see. "Well, you take tbis mighty coot," said the astonished highwayman. ."I'm u-e to it," said Mr Sadier. ' Oh.iu the same business?" insinus ted the robber suspiciously. Mr Sadler explained, lie said he was connected with the Workingman's Horn, and knew all about such fellows as tbe one confronting him. He got to t-ilking with the man. invited him into the Home, got him something to eat and a bath, and started him on the road to use ful citizenship. The man's name la Kenneday. He bas since testified in meeting tbat up to tbe time bis picture was taken be bad beld np hundreds of people in Chicago. He has become a worker tn the Chicago Medical Missionary Association, which conducts the Workiogmen's Home, He is now bard at work on a farm io Mich igan and Is an ornament to tbe commu nity in which be lives. And Mr Sadler , recommends camera as a protection Now It ia discovered that tbe best ani mal for Alaska business Is the caynie. Tbe goat, dog, reindeer, and mule have bad their day in the public mind as the proper animal for tbe business. Now let the plucky little cay use step forward. The first announcement ol the ap pointment of John Fox as collector of customs, read as it it was for the port of Portland, instead ot Astoria. There Is little doubt that Mr. Black will remain In tbe Portland office during the present admistration. It is strange how a sans young man can throw away all bis chances for use fulness in life by deliberately commit ing a crime, like forgery. Tbe tittle gained in a pecuniary way is a small re compense for tbe chance ot punishment alone to say nothing of tbe blackening of the character. There are nearly $400,000 of outstand ing warrants In Portland, a monument to poor management. This besides ths city s enormous bondsd indebtedness. A city the sua of Portland should not run behind that way, and when It does you may depend on tbe fact that there has been some loose government. Perhaps when Durrant broke down he saw In his mind the faces ot Blanche La moot and Minnie Williams as they ap pealing looked tbe last time he saw them alive One needs only to tbink of what the tt 3 murdered girls went through to be reconciled to tbe death ot their murderer, who was nndoobtedly Durrant: It would not Uks 1140,030,000 a year to pay tbe pensions if onr pensioners would only accept tbe examp'e ot George Washington as their guide. When Congress at tbe and of the Rev olutionary War during which it bad never paid him s cent, proposed to fix his pay, be declined the offer on tbe ground that be did not need it. World. Tbe holding of farmer's institutes through the valley is an excellent thing for tbe farmers and should be encourag ed. Tbe science of farming ia an import ant one, an J should be more thoroughly understood. It will when practically carried out, and not viaiooarily, mean more wheat to the acre, finer fruit, big ger bogs, betttr hotter and more of tbe conveniences of life. One needs to at tend tbe institutes in order to get tbe full benefit. iney nave established a plan up on the Klondike which will forever prevent starvation. A good many men who re eently went there bare a years supply ahead. Tbe Dawson city men go to them, confiscate their property, paying a big price for it, in fact whatever tbe market there calls for, leaving tbem barely enongn io feed tbem to Dye, and tell tbem to get, and they get, as the number coming oet indicate. Ia the meantime tbe government and a few Portland boomers are making donkeys of them selves on tbe relief proposition, and tbey are liable to become the laughiog stock of the world. The day ought not to be very far dis tant when intelligent, thoughtful people will select their family paper with as much care as they do their preacher nr their school teacher, for, as a matter of fact, tb. family paper may bare aa much to do in shapiog public and private mor als as either the teacher or the preacher. A publie journal in tbe family rircle, be it good, baa, or indtfierent, is read mire or lets by every member of tb. family who reads at all. Tbe teacher has tbe child or young person five or six boors a day : tbe preacher talks at or over them aa hoar or two a week, while tbe psper is in the boms the who), week tbrougo, and as a general thing is thoroughly read because it isalw.ysat fatal if for no better reason.

It was granted, and then with hia feet on the trao, thi cord about his throat, tied fast to the cross beam on tbe gallows, the holy water ol bia baptism in the Catholic Church on his head, he said these final words: "I desire to say tbat although I am an innocent man, Innocent of every crime tbat bas been charged against me, I bear no animosity towards those who bav. persecuted me, not even the press of San Francisco, which bounded ma to the grare. If ai y man thinks I am going to spring a sensation, I am not, except the sensation that I am an ' innoecnt man brought to the gravs by my persecutors, bnt I forgive tbem all. Tbey will got their jut tice from tbe great God who is master to us all, and there I also expect to get tbe justice tbat ia tbe justice ot an innocent man.

The event of the week exciting the most interest on tbe coast was the bang ing of Theodore Durrant tor tbe murder of Blanche Lamonte, an (cycle blooded affair that would make the north pole feel warm. This was anticipated by the Democrat, and we are glad to give the final chaptet in tbe life of the most noted murderer banged after one of the most obstinate fights in history, hardly par ailed in criminology. Tbe opinion of a majority ot people is that he received a just punishment. Certainlv just it guilty, and guilty according'to tbe cir cumstantial evidence presented, which is often the best evidence, and in this cassis unquestionably gsod. he people are glad It ia oil tbe boards. They are thoroughly tired of the name of Durrant. They bave bad their fill of him, morning, noon and night, and now are ready for something else, which It Is to b. hoped is not to had. t r Vl llnrranl .,- - , Tbe center ot attraction in tt e politi cal world this week baa been toe ap proaching senatorial election in Ohio, with Marcus Hanna the middle figure in tbe picture. The fight is a fierce one politically, all the best element in the American blood being agatost tbe elec tion of this man, who in lets than a year has come clear to the front on account of bis boss methods of doing things. Whatever a man's politics when he be- . . ... i. comes a regular boa wait uorns ii ought to be opposed by every one loving a common coonliy. At this time it looks aa it Mr. Banna will be deleated, but the Democrat will continue to predict his election, hoping that tbe prediction will be a poor one. Cuba this wejk again comes Icrward for notice on account of the report ot Spain having decided to consent to th. intervention o the United States. This would mean Cuban freedom. $250,000, 000 coold easily be raited by tbe natives for tbe purchase of the island, and would be a good way out of it.
